"Character Catalog"

Word's style catalogs don't obviously segregate text styles from paragraph styles. FrameMaker 11 provides simple, logical catalogs for paragraphs, character styles, table styles and even graphic object styles. In FrameMaker 11, not only can you globally update headings, lists and emphasized text, you can even change all instances of named tables, labeled anchored frames or graphic objects! This allows you a level of formatting control and document consistency amongst multiple authors you could have only dreamed of with Word. Warning: once you use these tools, there is no turning back.

FrameMaker 11 has improved productivity in many areas, but a favorite with veteran users is the restoration of reliable keyboard shortcuts for paragraph and character formatting, conditional text control, as well as insertion, wrapping and changing XML elements. Watch how simple keyboard shortcuts can allow you to swiftly shape your document without leaving the text you are authoring
